Ragdoll Colors and Patterns

Seal Point

The seal color is a rich dark brown. The shading is similar in color to the animal that you might see glimmering in the sun and floating on a buoy off the coast of California!

Blue Point

The color is gray…so why is it called blue? Perhaps for the same reason that “seal” is called “seal” and not “dark brown” – it has a classier ring to it! It could also be due to the color having bluish underlying tones.

Flame Red Point Ragdoll Kitten Cat Color and Pattern. Copyright Riverside Rags, LLC

Flame or Red Point

Both “Flame” and “Red” are orange in color. TICA recognizes this color as “Red” while CFA has labeled it “Flame”. Our opinion is that “Flame” is a better description which is why you’ll see our kittens classified as “Flame”.

Cream Point

The Cream color is a diluted Flame or Red. Similar to creamsicle ice cream, a light orange color or peach color will be present. Because the cream and flame colors can be so similar while ragdoll kittens are young, oftentimes the only way to know the color for certain is by DNA testing.
